"Before the creation of the welfare state, immigrants who came to this country were for the most part attracted by Americas reputation as a land of freedom and opportunity. Laws and customs that then prevailed REQUIRED immigrants to carve out their individual destinies by their own labor, perserverance, intelligence, and determination." James Thorton From THE NEW AMERICAN 1996
"Detroit is just a preview of what our country will look like if the progressive agenda goes unchecked" M. Beatty
WHY MY TEARS FALL
A land of opportunity, we were
Lady Liberty beckoning the immigrants arriving with hope
Prideful people willing to work
Looking forward to the day they too will vote
New cultures blended in the melting pot
We became a country teeming with diversity
What this country could do for us, ask not
People willing to toil for endless opportunity
Our exceptionalism was once applauded
Our power respected around the world
Patriotism was a virtue not a flaw
Cheers erupted as our flag was unfurled
Lady Liberty now stands woefully tearful
As immigrants arrive to reap welfare benefits
A once proud country now broke and fearful
Progressive policies add to its deficit
Now part of a world melting pot
No longer a power to be feared
Just another broken nation to be forgotten
As fewer remember the days she was once revered
